Some ladies in another houses, for waving their handkerchiefs to some Confederate prisoners, had their house surrounded, and all communication with their friends cut off for several days, during which time they were served with regular soldiers' rations at meals. The bombardment of Vicksburg. The Vicksburg (Miss.) Whig. of the 1st instant, describing the bombardment of the city, says that five gunboats succeeded in passing the batteries. After describing the fight, it says: While this grand but heart-rending sight was being enacted on the river the scene in the city beggared all description. Many families were still living in town — some loth to leave their homes, others who could not find houses to go to, and many who were too poor to move. All were aroused from their slumbers about four o'clock by the shot and s

The military commandant publishes an order governing the bakers of the city, which says: The price of flour being this day twenty-four dollars per barrel, bakers are requested to give, during the ensuing week, commencing on Monday, 23d instant, as follows, until further notice: Twenty-four ounces of bread for twenty cents, twelve ounces for ten cents, six ounces for five cents.

s mentioned. A letter in the Petersburg Express, from Norfolk, says: In Norfolk and Portsmouth at this time, there are not over 500 soldiers, in Suffolk, about 3,000. We very seldom learn of the arrival of a Petersburg or Richmond paper, therefore are in total ignorance of the gallant deeds we feel assured that our boys are achieving. Negroes are leaving in vast quantities; they are brought from Isle of Wight and adjacent counties. I wish you could have witnessed our Union Fourth of July celebration. It contained 20½ citizens including the Portsmouth delegation; 72 soldiers and 17 hacks with women and children decorated with flowers and Union flags. These women were from Water street, principally. On the steamboat that plies between Norfolk and Portsmouth, they have a Confederate flag painted on the deck of the steamer, so that passengers are compelled to trample it under foot. A new order was issued last week to prevent the citizens from assembling on the streets in

The other imposes a similar penalty on John W. Andrews for exhibiting a cross, the emblem of the suffering of our blessed Saviour, fashioned for a personal ornament, which he said was made from the bones of a Yankee soldier, and having shown this, too, without rebuke, in the Louisiana Club, which claims to be composed of chivalric gentlemen."

The damage done in the city was pretty severe — a great many of the houses being struck and more or less injured. Although the streets were thronged during the bombardment with the terrified inmates of the town, flying to places of safety and refuge, there was but one loss of life — the estimable Mrs. Gamble. The enemy must have suffered severely, as our shots told with fearful effect upon their vessels. On Sunday forenoon three guns were fired from our lower batteries, in honor of the glorious news from Virginia, which they construed into an attack and immediately opened upon us. They kept the fire up for several hours, doing considerable damage. About nine o'clock that night they opened again on the city, and for about an hour and a half the shells from the mortar fleet fell into the

A gentleman, recently arrived at Knoxville from St. Louis, reports that only about the hundred Lincoln troops are left to govern the city.

Graham visited Newbern last week under a flag of truce. They had an interview with Lincoln's Governor, Stanly, when the subject turned upon the Union sentiment whicheelings of horror and contempt. Mr. Stanly insisted that Col. Martin was greatly mistaken in the sentiments of his fellow-citizens, and, addressing himself to Lieut.
